Lily:

The table fell eerily silent after we returned. I had readjusted my chair towards the rear end of the table, wanting to keep as much distance as I could from him.

And I knew this affected Taylor.

The spaghetti in her plate squelched as she stabbed it a second time.

" So is no one going to explain to me how you both know each other? I can feel the shift in the air .." she stopped, turning to look at Chad who had just cleared his throat.

" You have something to say?"

Chad shurgged, picking up his drink.

" Well no, I met her at a party I attended with my sister. She was a big sour because she lost the game to my team and she had gone into a verbal argument with one of the players from my team. I guess she is still pretty bummed out about it even though I already tried to apologize to her for it" Chad said.

    Lily:My phone rang, waking me up before my alarm clock did, and I picked it up, thinking it was Mason.“Hey, baby…”“Baby?” My mom's voice came through the phone.I froze.“Mom? Hey, how are you?” I stood abruptly, wiping the sleepiness from my eyes.“I'm great my love. How are you?” she asked, in her usual soothing breathy voice.“Good, good,” I said with a smile.“How's Singapore?”“Oh, Singapore is lovely.

    Mason's Packing was always chaos, but it felt different this time. I kept stealing glances at Lily as she threw clothes into her suitcase, hair messy, lips slightly swollen from the night before at the bar. She had that tired-but-beautiful look that made it impossible to focus on anything else. “Do you really need three pairs of shoes?” I asked, holding up one of the boxes she’d tossed into her bag. She shot me a look over her shoulder. “I'm not leaving my shoes behind.” I chuckled, shaking my head. “You’re ridiculous.” “Hey,” she said, smirking, “I pack for survival, not for your approval.” We worked in silence for a few minutes, each of us trying not to step too close. But every time our hands brushed, my pulse jumped. I caught her looking at me more than once, that same little spark in her eyes that said she wanted me as badly as I wanted her. Her dad appeared behind her, holding a neatly folded stack of clothes. “Lily, here. Let me help,” he said. His tone was gentle, b
